Category: compiler Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: ShafDog (shafdog2000) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Installing PowerShell Cmdlets Initial Comment: Microsoft has seen fit to not document how to install PowerShell cmdlets outside of InstallUtils.exe. This leaves MSI developers an interesting conundrum of how to install them. You either, a. do what's document and create various custom actions to call the InstallUtil.exe Install/Uninstall/Commit/Rollback actions -or- b. you use reflector and/or Dark to find out the install class just adds some registry keys. Either approach is still cumbersome for the WiX developer so it be nice if Wix supported being able to PowerShell snapin via the WiX schema e.g. <File ...> <PowerShellSnapIn ...> </File> It be really cool if WiX supported adding the snapin to either the system or user "profile" (which is needed to avoid added a shortcut with .psc1 file or forces users to type add-pssnapin <snapin_name>). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642717&aid=1757278&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
